Cake Checklist
When you’re choosing a cake, shop around. Ask to see pictures of finished wedding cakes and perhaps references from satisfied customers and professionals, such as wedding consultants. Also ask for a tasting. Rather than go with the traditional fruit cake, consider choosing your favourite flavour instead, or a combination of different flavours.
